Sinossi

USA Naval Capacity examines the critical state of American shipbuilding and its direct impact on U.S. naval power and national security. The book highlights how a diminished shipbuilding capacity threatens the nation's ability to project power globally and respond to emerging threats effectively. A key area of concern is the growing maintenance backlog, leading to delays and cost overruns that affect fleet readiness.

The book meticulously explores the historical context, tracing the decline of American shipbuilding dominance since World War II due to shifting economic priorities and globalization.

The book analyzes the current capabilities of the four remaining active shipyards capable of constructing large naval vessels, evaluating their capacity and economic viability. It also delves into the political and economic factors shaping the shipbuilding landscape, presenting data from government reports, industry analyses, and expert interviews. The approach taken is analytical and informative, presenting complex issues such as defense policy and maritime industrial base in an accessible manner.

Concluding with potential solutions, the book offers policy recommendations and highlights the need for technological innovation and economic incentives to revitalize the shipbuilding industry. It connects to fields like economics and political science, illustrating how shipbuilding impacts local communities and national defense strategies.

The book progresses through chapters, beginning with the strategic importance of naval power and culminating in actionable strategies for policymakers and industry leaders.

Maroons and the Gullah The: The...

Editors Charles River

Although the slave systems required the continual use of force and coercion, as well as the harsh punishment of any rebellion, slaves were not a helpless labor force terrorized into obedience and docility. Slaves resisted and sometimes rebelled, and over the centuries there were thousands of slave rebellions of varying sizes. Slaves commonly resisted in many ways, such as sabotaging their tools and the crops they were tending, but much more rarely slaves violently rebelled, which were for the most part put down with extreme violence. 
Of course, a fairly common form of resistance was running away and seeking hiding places in environments where slave catchers experienced difficulty. Slaves who ran and hid out, or who made their own settlements, were called maroons, from the Spanish word cimarron, which means “wild” or “untamed.” The term that historians commonly use to describe this is marronage, adapted from the French word maron, meaning the same as maroon. Marronage took two forms, grand and petty. Grand marronage was permanent, with escapees joining together to establish lasting settlements in inaccessible areas in mountains and swamps, sometimes preferring death rather than being caught and enslaved again. 
The Gullah Geechee, or the “Gullah” for short, are the descendants and rightful heirs of the once-shackled slaves who resided in these parts. As the guardians and torch holders of the incredible legacy left behind by their persevering ancestors, the modern Gullah spare no effort in preserving the inherently unique customs and traditions, complete with their own creole tongue, that have been passed down from one generation to the next.
